One of Transom's most popular features ever is TOOLS Editor Jeff Towne's primer on setting up a small recording studio, but the page hasn't had an update in six years. So, Jeff has created a completely new version, covering computer and software selection, the requisite hardware, along with equipment recommendations in various price ranges and pretty much everything you need on this topic, all in one place. There are links to individual tests of gear, manufacturer's sites, downloads, etc. etc. (One interesting new thing: ProTools is becoming dislodged as the go-to choice for documentary production.) This is the kind of useful, generous advice that makes us all love Jeff Towne.http://transom.org/?p=23904

New Adventures in Sound Art (NAISA) is pleased to announce the 2013 edition of the TransX Transmission Art Symposium May 17 - 20, 2013

We are now inviting submissions for papers and performances:

Rooted in the earliest experiments with radio, Transmission Art has continued to flourish into the 21st Century with experiments using wireless communications technology over the past 100 years, including the exploration of a variety of mobile-based platforms and lesser-known forms of transmission, such as VLF. The terrain of transmission art is dynamic and fluid, always open to redefinition.

The Trans-X Transmission Art Symposium, part of the Deep Wireless Festival of Radio & Transmission Art, will focus on Transmission Art, with particular interest in contributions that summarize, examine or reframe traditions and histories of transmission art practices, technology, education and pedagogy. Additionally, we are very interested in presentations that go beyond the local contingent to give a sense of how new technologies of international transmission activity might be experienced. Proposed presentations and performances that combine the themes of Transmission Art and "Sonic Geography" are also especially welcome (see submission details athttp://naisa.ca/opportunities.html#transx)!

Join us for an evening concert and artist talk at the NAISA space with featured artist John Wynne who will present and discuss his works.

Sound artist John Wynne has a PhD from Goldsmiths College, University of London. His award-winning work, which is often research-led, is made for museums, galleries and public spaces, as well as for radio: it ranges from massive installations to delicate sculptural works and from architectural sound drawings to flying radios. Long-term research projects have included working with speakers of endangered languages in Africa and Canada and with heart and lung transplant patients in the UK. For 3 years he had his own programme called Upcountry on ResonanceFM in London, where he "invited Tammy Wynette to have tea with Pierre Henry - in a thunderstorm" (Ed Baxter). He is a Reader in Sound Arts at the University of the Arts London, and a core member of the CRiSAP research centre.

Craving a Sunday afternoon with lots of cake and fun things to do in Toronto? New Adventures in Sound Art (NAISA) proudly presents Art's Birthday at the Wychwood Theatre, Artscape Wychwood Barns.

Sunday, January 20th is the perfect day to make and enjoy Art from noon to 5pm. Build your own instruments with Tilly Kooyman, create your own stories with Karin Randoja (Theatre Direct) and make some fun sounds to go with them with John Gzowski. Also included will be two performances by Christine Duncan. An afternoon of hands-on art making and interactive fun for the whole family. Come help us celebrate Art's 1,000,050th Birthday - and yes there will be cake!

Come learn about music, digital sound, improvisation, laptop orchestras, and the programming language ChucK, with the basics of live coding workshop. No prior experience necessary - all ages and levels of experience welcome.

Ian Jarvis is a Sound Artist Composer, Song Writer, and Media Producer from Toronto. He currently spits mad live code with the newly conceived group extramuros.

Geared towards the budding sound artist, the visual and media artist exploring sound, the community radio programmer wanting to expand their possibilities, and those with a general interest in sound, this workshop will teach basic recording, editing, processing and mixing practices.

New Adventures in Sound Art (NAISA) joins Continuum to give an electronic boost to its already juiced ensemble. Our first concert staged at The Citadel (Parliament just south of Dundas), the evening features new works commissioned from Rose Bolton, Scott Smallwood and Scott Wilson; an existing work by Daniel Mayer from the latest international Call for Scores; and a work by Andrew Stanliand from way out there in the technological ether. All the new works are written specifically for NAISA's unique live spatialization system - a customized system for controlling sound moving between loudspeakers.

New Adventures in Sound Art is a non-profit organization that presents performances and installations spanning the entire spectrum of sound art. NAISA is partially funded by the Department of Canadian Heritage, the Toronto Arts Council, Ontario Arts Council, Canada Council for the Arts and the SOCAN Foundation.
